I'm a huge fan of this kind of tech so will attempt to get time off work to attend
something like this! Any help I can provide to help you with the logistics let me know
Steve :)

 I could demonstrate the following _only_ if there was enough people
 expressing interest here on the mailing list (as I'd have to bring some
 kit down ready-built, don't mind doing it if theres plenty of interested
 people)
 
 - VMware Workstation 8.... this can now run Mac OS X perfectly on Linux,
 ESXi 5 now runs on this for testing purposes, and most other OS's
 especially Windows with Unity so your windows applications merge with your
 Linux desktop.
 
 - VMware ESXi 5 / vSphere 5... I an show the new linux-based vCenter
 management server now available in vSphere 5, it's new web based
 management and generally show off what an ESXi or cluster of ESXi machines
 can do.
 
 - Proxmox VE 1.9... Show off KVM and OpenVZ virtualization and explain the
 key differences... also possibly show DRDB in action if I bring two
 hypervisors with me.
 
 - Proxmox VE 2.0... This is still in beta but has better HA support and I
 haven't played with it much - so this is more of an experiment than a
 presentation.
 
 p.s. I run the Proxmox VE support channel on Freenode if you have Proxmox
 questions.
 
 I know nothing about Xen however, so Chris's presentation could compliment
 these.
